Entry 1st July 2018: Post 2: GVP G-Lock
GVP G-LOCK - The GVP Genlock
Reflecting on a time when video tape was king. The GVP G-Lock Genlock
The G-Lock will work with any NTSC or PAL-based Amiga having at least
512k of memory and version 1.3 or greater Amiga operating system. If
G-Lock is multitasked or operation under ARexx control is planned, a
minimum of 1 megabyte of chip memory is required. Enhanced operation
will be realized on computers having the Enhanced Set (ECS), expanded
memory (fast ram ), hard drives, or accelerated CPU's. G-Lock is
compatible with Advanced Architecture (AA) chip set based Amigas like
the Amiga 4000.
G-Lock is powered directly by the Amiga. While power requirements are
minimal, the A500, A500 Plus and A600 series computers may be limited
in the number of peripherals that can be attached.
G-Lock is designed to be used with the following external video and
audio equipment:
Camera as live video source
Composite
S-Video (Y/C) Hi8 and S-VHS
VCR, VTR, camcorder or laserdisc player
Composite
S-Video (Y/C) Hi8 and S-VHS

CD or cassette player
Monitors
Amiga RGB monitors ( 1080,, 1084, 1084S, 1950, 1960 )
Studio monitor, TV receiver.
Note: All composite video connectors and all audio connectors are of the
RCA type. All Y/C (Hi8 or S-Video) connections use the standard 4-pin
Mini-DIN connectors.
